Laser Hair Removal Tips

In addition to upper lips, chins, bikini lines, legs, under arms and other places where you have annoying skin growth, laser hair  removal can be a great solution to skin irritation and ingrown hairs. But there are a few things you need to know.

• While individual treatments can be expensive, the long term cost of hair laser removal can be less than waxing or threading.

• Patients may have to return for “touch up treatments” in afew months.
• Patients must avoid the sun before and after treatment by using a sun block of at least SPF 30.
• Get references from friends and do your research and choose a trained professional.
